Build A New Home -VS- Buy Existing Home




Advantages Of Building A New Home:

More customized to your wants and needs.


All components of the house are new.


Most components are of the latest design.


New Homes are usually built in areas of growth rather than decline, helping with resale value.


May be more personally satisfying if you take an active role in home building process.



Advantages To Buying An Existing Home:


Generally better priced than a new build.


Immediate move in! You do not have to wait months for the home to be built.


Existing homes often come with cost savings in that they already have landscaping, window treatments, blinds, lighting, decorating, upgraded fixtures, and sometimes other bonus features.


Less hassle. You do not have to deal with the frustrations that come along with building a home. (ie: finding the perfect lot, catching construction errors, time line disappointments, etc.)


Neighborhoods that are finished out are less likely to have the noise of construction, and the shopping and dining will be developed nearby for more convenience.


Looking to build/buy a home? Let me help you find a great deal!

No matter what price range you are looking for the possibilities are endless.

Tina Webb / Realtor A + Real Estate: 5 Feng Shui Concepts To Help A Home Sell

5 Feng Shui Concepts To Help A Home Sell



To Put the best face on a listing and appeal to buyers who follow feng shui principles, keep these tips in mind.


1. Pay special attention to the front door, which is considered the "mouth of chi" (chi is the "life force" of all things) and one of the most powerful aspects of the entire property. Abundance, blessings, opportunities, and good fortune enter through the front door is swept clean, free of cobwebs and clutter. Make sure all lighting is straight and properly hung. Better yet, light the path leading up to the front door to create an inviting atmosphere.


2. Chi energy can be flushed away wherever there are drains in the home. To keep the good forces of a home in always keep the toilet seats down and close the doors to bathrooms.


3. The master bed should be in a place of honor, power, and protection, which is farthest from and facing toward the entryway of the room. It's even better if you can place the bed diagonally in the farthest corner. Paint the room in colors that promote serenity, relaxation, and romance, such as soft tones of green, blue, and lavender.


4. The dining room symbolizes the energy and power of family togetherness. Make sure the table is clear and uncluttered during showings. Use an attractive table cloth to enhance the look of the table while softening the sharp corners.


5. The windows are considered to be the eyes of the home. Getting the windows professionally cleaned will make the home sparkle and ensure the view will be optimally displayed.
